Cesc Fabregas is not fazed by criticism that Arsenal were
'over-elaborate' last season.
The Gunners played some of the most attractive football in the
Premier League last term, but lacked a killer instinct in front of
goal.
Fabregas accepts the end product was missing from the intricate
approach play, but feels that is simply Arsenal's style.
"What can I say? The only thing that's been missing this year has
been the goal after so many opportunities," Fabregas told The
Official Arsenal Season review 2006/07, ITV DVD.
"I don't mind people saying we over-elaborate it. We are the
players, we play.
"So I know the way I like to play. I know the way all my team-mates
like to play and that's what we do.
"But just the goal has been missing and it's the most important
thing in football."
The Spanish midfielder also reiterated his admiration for Arsenal
boss Arsene Wenger for retaining faith in his promise.
Fabregas added: "The best thing he's done to me is I know he had
confidence in me.
"And it was just me. I had to show him I was good enough to be in
the team.
"Sometimes I still had bad games and he still believed in me."
